Had an RD in 83 and I have never been able to forget about it, so I picked up this beauty for cheap. Attachments:

Cool project, but I must ask... Is that a go kart against your wall? Do you still race?

The tank is useable, but will need to be cleaned out. I have some front master cylinders that work, but would also need to be cleaned up. PM me if you want to take a look.

Finally got a roller, a lot easier to work on when you can move it around. Attachments:

Well instead of trying to find good fork tubes and trying to rebuild a junk master cylinder and caliper. 92 FZR 600 front end swap. I'll do the rear this winter. Attachments:
